Pageflex Persona [document: PRS0000026_00026]



My name is Mariah Huxley, and I’m a reformed slut. 

The only year I attended college, I spent on my back, living on a constant high from sex and booze. That was, until my wayward ways left me with the greatest responsibility one could have. 
Fast forward seven years, and I am Mariah Huxley, a twenty-six-year-old, single mother, living in the unforgiving world as an adult. I work hard to take care of us, and I am happy. I’m happy until I close my eyes at night and realize that’s not the case at all. Something is missing. My soul, my body, and my heart—they’ve all been drained of anything exciting. That’s until the night I finally allow myself to live, and I meet him 

When he touches me, I awaken and slowly become resurrected. However, will the relationship we’ve started be one I’m prepared to handle? I am strong enough to endure many things, but am I strong enough to sustain this connection with him.

My name is Jason Cain, and I am who I am. 

Some may call me determined, but the majority of society views me as a prick. To them, I’m an arrogant jerk who defies the standard rules of life to get what I want. I couldn’t agree more. 

I was born on the streets, loved by no one. The only person I had was me. Once adopted by the state, I vowed to myself to become a man of means. I vowed to become a man who would be respected from the moment I walked in a room.

Fast forward several years, and I am Jason Cain, a thirty-two-year-old, successful entrepreneur, and self-made millionaire. My life is all about time, which includes making gut reaction business deals, growing my empire, and being in the company of beautiful women. I have time for only one thing, my satisfaction. That’s until the night she strolls into my nightclub.

When she touches me, I feel every wall I’ve built up slowly crumble around me. I disintegrate. However, will the relationship we’ve started be one I can leave behind? Or will I lose the part of me that’s kept me going my entire life? Am I strong enough to survive her? 

Or will this be our last call?

my review

It was supposed to be just a random hook up. But the first time they did it – explosions were all over the place. It was an epic night that neither of them had forgotten. For a single mom, Mariah Huxley was experiencing a drought on her sex life, but when her friends pushed her to finally come out from her hiding place and party with them, she didn’t expect to have a mind-blowing, toe-curling, completely out of the world experience with the young, ruthless businessman, Jason Caine.

He was eighteen when he first saw her, and now that he found her once again, Jason needed to get his fixed. He needed to have her NOW. TONIGHT. When he finally did, she was like a drug, and he was hooked. But first, they needed to set some ground rules – because no matter how much he craved her, he could not give something he was sure she wanted or she’d crave: LOVE.

Unlike Mariah, who might have gotten pregnant at 19, her family still loved her. Growing up in foster homes and being passed around didn’t make Jason’s childhood memorable. He was the classic story of from rags to riches, and he made his way to the top by building walls around his heart. But Mariah seemed to know how to break his impenetrable walls and it was scaring him.

Can what started out to be a one-night stand, and a series of hook-ups turned out to be something more? Or will his past make him let go of what might be the best thing that has ever happened to him?

You will love the characters, even the secondary ones – from Mariah’s friends Shelby & Giselle to her sisters who were just awesome, and a great support system. This wasn’t an easy ride for the both of them, especially for Jason. He struggled with his feelings. He didn’t know he was capable of love. He needed some good wake up call. Good thing her sister wasn’t afraid to tell him what she thinks of him. And Royce – I so adore this kid! He can really kick some serious a**!!!


MS Brannon surprised me. Having read the Sulfur Heights Series, the Last Call is a breather.  It’s hot, sexy, witty and an engaging read that will keep you up, all warm & fuzzy through the night.
